Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of tattoo eyeliner and what eyeliner style to choose

When you’ve invested in beautiful permanent eyebrows, you’ll want to keep them looking their best for as long as possible. Most treatments last from one year up to three before you require a touch up appointment, and lots of factors come into play to determine how long they will last.

Things like the type of ink used, the intensity of your pigment, the type of procedure you’ve chosen and your commitment to aftercare will all affect the longevity of your cosmetic tattoo. Most of this is out of your control, but one thing which is most definitely within your sphere of influence is the aftercare you’re committed to providing. Read more

You’d think that when someone is about to apply a tattoo directly onto your face, they should be appropriately qualified and trained to do so. However, not all permanent make up practitioners are equal, in fact some are nothing short of inept.

The humble eyebrow has gone from being a negligible streak of hair above the eye to a major contender in the facial beauty stakes. Once shaven off completely in favour of a thin pencil line, today’s trendy brows are thick, full and beautifully shaped.

Getting our eyebrows perfect every morning is not an easy task. Applying just the right amount of plucking, colour and shaping, not to mention getting them as symmetrical as possible, takes time that most of us simply don’t have. Thankfully, technology has come to the rescue, in the form of permanent eyebrows. Read more

Having any sort of cosmetic treatment, particularly on your face, can be a daunting prospect. As much as you’re looking forward to your new look, worries about discomfort, about the end result and about the skills of your practitioner can make even the bravest person a little nervous.

For first timers, permanent makeup can be nothing short of terrifying. After all, you’re having a form of tattoo applied to a very sensitive area of your face, so worries about pain are no doubt buzzing around your head.

So you might have heard about permanent make up, but are probably thinking, “hey, I go without make up for a lot of the time, why would I want to look like I’m wearing makeup all the time?”

If you’re a bit of a part time make up wearer, or at least only go with the basic mascara and lip gloss most days, you are probably wondering why on earth you’d even consider this type of treatment. After all, when you’re slobbing around in your jogging bottoms and tee, won’t you look silly all made up to the nines? Read more

Semi-permanent eyeliner tattoos are fast becoming a high demand beauty treatment, saving thousands of women time and effort every day when they want to look their best. Applying your own eyeliner can be tricky, especially through the bleary haze of the early morning rush. By choosing a semi-permanent shaded eyeliner treatment, you can enjoy looking your best from the moment you open your eyes.

What is shaded eyeliner?

Shading your eyeliner simply means using different strokes, colours and thicknesses to accentuate your eyes in the most flattering way possible. If you’re a lover of using beige eyeliner pencils, shadows with a pearlescent effect or other colours in your eye makeup, permanent shaded eyeliner can help create the unique, tailored look you seek, without the hassle of everyday application.

Expertly applied makeup can help accentuate natural beauty, and the hope is that permanent make up can do this too. But when you’re talking about eyeliner tattoos and permanent lip colours, is it really possible to get a ‘natural’ look? Read more
